Winter is coming in Canada, which means car season is dying down. The weekly Euro Cars & Coffee event in Calgary is getting smaller by the week, but occasionally something cool shows up. A pair or Porsche Carrera GTs came a few weeks back and this monster of a Ford GT turned up at a recent event.
The claim to this car is that is can run 400 km/h and produces up to 1800 hp without nitrous-oxide. Yes, the car is built to handle nitrous-oxide.
The car is owned by a local collector who has a ton of other interesting rides ranging from a Ferrari 599 GTB to rat rods and more. But this was by far the coolest one he has brought out to a car meet.
When the owner fired up the car, the crowd of over 50 spectators immediately backed off. The sound coming from the straight-piped exhaust was just incredible. The video does not do it justice. But the best part was when the driver let the tires spin a little before making a quick exit.!
The same night, things got a bit rowdy with a Porsche 993 Turbo drifting around the parking lot and this tuned BMW M5 revving it up and letting the tires loose.
